Notice Title

National Museums Liverpool Wondrous Place Gallery Enabling Works

Notice Description

Bidders are asked to submit a formal tender for the "Wondrous Place Enabling Works". NML is looking to appoint a Contractor to manage and deliver a package of works within the Wondrous Place Gallery of the Museum of Liverpool in advance of a re-fit of the gallery. The works will be delivered under a Contract Administrator to be appointed by NML to oversee all elements of the Wondrous Place Gallery, All works are required to be delivered and completed on-site by the middle of July 2021 to allow follow on works to be completed by others. As detailed in Appendix C the proposed work packages are distinct and NML accepts that it is likely to require a number of sub-contractors to deliver all the packages. National Museums Liverpool (NML) is seeking the appointment of a Contractor to undertake a package of enabling works within the Museum of Liverpool, Wondrous Place Gallery. The works have been broken into three core packages: - Repairs to the current high level window blinds and installation of a UV window film - First fix electrical cabling to proposed display case points - Redecoration of the gallery walls low and high level The proposed works require completion on-site by mid-July 2021 to allow for the fitting out of the gallery to take place in due time for opening. The proposed works will be overseen by a Contract Administrator to be appointed by NML to co-ordinate all elements of the works to be delivered for the gallery re-opening. Wondrous Place is the name of a gallery at the Museum of Liverpool. It covers an area of 750 sqm and, together with a section of the Skylight Gallery, it explores the importance of Liverpool as a creative city, and the particular significance of music and sport to the city's identity. Wondrous Place and the Skylight Gallery were de-installed in January 2018 to host the Double Fantasy exhibition. Setworks, graphics, cases and multimedia units were moved and stored in various locations. Some of these assets will be re-used and other assets will be fully redeveloped as part of the refreshment and reinstatement programme. Wondrous Place opened just under 10 years ago and celebrates Liverpool's popular culture. Given its subject matter, from the outset the design and interpretation of the gallery relied heavily on digital content, with two large immersive theatres, and a significantly large number of audio-visual displays and interactives. The overall design and layout of Wondrous Place will remain the same, but this project gives us the opportunity to bring its content up to date to reflect contemporary culture and to be more inclusive and representative. Areas that will be updated include sections on Sport, Music and Creative Liverpool to include contemporary references, greater representation and inclusion of diverse communities and significant events. The co-curated elements of the gallery will also be replaced as a result of seven new collaborations with local community organisations.
